Lapland is the northernmost region of Finland (also stretching into Sweden and Norway). Most holiday packages visit Finnish Lapland.

Lapland spans across Finland, Sweden, Norway, and part of Russia — but Finnish Lapland is the most popular for Christmas holidays.

This depends on which part of Lapland you want to visit. The further North you go, the earlier the season starts. But generally December is most festive, but Mid December–March offer longer days, good snow, and excellent Northern Lights chances.

Yes, these are fantastic months with deep snow, longer daylight, and usually fewer crowds than Christmas.

November marks the start of the season with Christmas lights and snow arriving. October has little snow and is less ideal. If you are looking to visit during November, I'd recommend heading to Saariselka to help secure the best snow conditions.

Yes, though Christmas peak dates are pricier. Booking Christmas week is usually better value and staying fewer nights helps reduce costs.

Lapland is different to almost any other destination. I have heard so many scare stories about people who have booked flights but can't get accommodation or visa versa, only to loose their money.

Many excursions, transfers, and clothing are complicated to arrange and can be a false economy.

Yes. There's many ways to see Santa. Rovaniemi is the home of the Santa Village where you can meet him 365 days a year!

If you prefer a less commercialised experience then head further north where you'll find private Santa villages not open to the public. Ask us for more details.

It’s possible on a “day trip” charter, and that's how I did a few years ago but we recommend at least 3 nights to enjoy the full magical experience.

A heated glass-roofed cabin where you can watch it snow and the Northern Lights from bed. It's really magical lying on your bed tucked up with the little ones watching it snow.

Some of the Aurora Cabins & Aurora Suites have aurora alarms so you never miss the best light show on earth!

A unique hotel built from snow and ice, redesigned each year with hand-carved sculptures.
